Joan Crawford With,
Clark Gable at Elite

The MGM modern drama “Chain-
ed” which is showing at the Hlite on |
Friday and Saturday, with a matinee |
on the second day, is a picture wae
gives full scope to the two leading |
artists, Joan Crawford and Clark,
Gable and is the love story of one
man and two women.

It is modernly timed, and also has
a present-day setting in New York
and other places. It treats of the
delicate subject of divorce, without |

condemnation. It is the eternal tri-
angle with @ fourth angle included,

but after many vicissttudes in the] »:

story, the man, no longer willing to:
surrender that which he feels ds
rightfully his, finally decides that
rather than wreck all three lives it
is best that he consent to a divorce.

It is a truly powerful story of mo-
dern life in great cities and should
prove a big attraction for this week
end.

Newly Weds to Need
Clean Bill of Health

Bills of health will have to be pro-
duced by prospective couples in this
province before marriages can be
performed, under a bill introduced in
the legislature by Hon. George Hoad-
ley, minister of health, to amend ae
Solemnization of Marriage Act.

Last year, a similar bill introduced
in the house by the minister caused
widespread interest and was finally
withdrawn, as it was felt that the
public was not sufficiently informed.

An educational campaign has been
carried on in the province during the
year by those approving of such leg-
islation and Mr. Hoadley expects it
to receive a more favorable recep-
tion now.

The minister said the local council
of women, women’s institutes, U.F.
A., U.F.W.A. and the medical pro-
fession had ‘been consulted and ap-
proved of the proposed legislation.

Under the terms of the bill, “A cer-
tificate of due publication of banns
and, in addition, an affdavit by each
party to the intended marriage, set-
ting out that the party making the
affidavit ds not then infected with any
venereal disease or any other com-
municable disease,"’ shall be produced
before a marriage ceremony is per-
formed.

Imperial Veterans

Imperial ex-servicemen of the pro-
vince are planning to hold a re-union
and conference at Sylvan lake in
June when three main points for dis-
cussion will be hospitalization, pen-
sions and goacial legislation. ‘The
idea of the gettogether is to “foster
a better understanding of the Im-
perials and their needs; also to pre-
sent concrete proposals to the Cana-

Request for the transfer of a
name from one poll to another with-

Oibjection to the retention of a
name on the list may only be made
during the month of April so that
the person objected to may be given
at least two weeks’ notice to appear
before a Court of Revision. Other
applications may be made any time
during April, May or June, prior to
the date set for sitting of the Court

their polling division is included. The
Registrar may also accept these lat-

WAINWRIGHT, ALBERTA WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8rd, 1935

Mr. J. M. Dechene, Liberal M.L.A.

for St. Paul constituency, last week
advocated appointment of a commis-
sion to study the question of crop 4in-
surance applicable to the entire pro-
vince to meet existing ‘conditions.
- In support of his motion, Mr. De-
cherié declares that every year farm-
ers in different localities suffer
gtievolis crop losses through climatic
conditions such as drought, frost, hail
and other causes. In a great many
cases, ‘these conditions have resulted
in want and suffering and have com-
pelled involved farmers to seek re-
lief for seed and supplies for their
homes.

In the districts so affected, de-
clares Mr. Dechene, the whole busi-
ness structure suffers as a result of
these losses by the farmers and the
consequent lack of purchasing power.
He contends. that this method of
meeting such calamities is unsound,
“uneconomic and repugnant to our
farmers, who are thus compelled,
through no fault of their own, to
seek this relief.”

Mr. Dechene is hopeful that his)

suggestion will be readily adopted
by the house.

Dear Donna, ;

I was very pleased when I read
your jetter, and I hope I answer it
satisfactorily. Iam probably enter-
ing the training Gollege for teachers
next year, as I ath to be a teacher.

Our system of education is rather
Nike yours. We ha a school com-
mittee, an education board and a
minister of education.

The householders elect the school
committee (about 10 men). It has
very limited power. \It is responsible
for the upkeep of the school and
grounds. The headmaster makes a
monthly report to the committee. If
they do not like a teacher all they
can do is to send in a protest to the
Education Board. The committee are
not concerned with the studies of the
pupils. The government used to
grant a subsidy of a £ on every
pound raised by the committee for
school funds, till two years ago, when

Looking in retrospect over the last
25 years we find this has been a
reign full of important events in the
world’s history. From the view-
point of 1910 almost unbe’ evable
developments have been made in *he
field of mechanics, electric ty avia-
tion, engineering, medicine, surgery
and so on. There have been many
troublous times, too, in this last
quarter of a century—the late war,
with its wake of unemployment and
misery and crises in affairs of state
both at home and abroad, yet our,
King and Queen have ever shown
that spirit of courage and sympathy
which binds them close to hearts
throughout the Empire.

So on May 6th as many of the peo-
ple of the Empire as can do 80, will!
honor the Silver Jubilee of Britain's
King and Queen by taking a holiday. '
In ‘“‘England’s Green and Pleasanr
Land” itself celebrations ad feSstivi-
ties of all kinds will take place. Old
customs, such as roasting a who'e
ox, Will be revived and the day will
be one of general rejoicing.

Wainwright, along with the rest
of Canadian cities, towns, and vil-
lages, will doubtless contribute her

The world is still in a state of tur-
moil—perhaps worse ‘than at any
time during the present reign. That
our King and Queen may have
strength and guidance for the years
to come will be the wish of hearts
from sea to sea in the British Com-
monwealth.

Tax Reduction
Boosts | Demand

Since Great Britain removed the
tax of two cents a pint on beer, con-
sumption has increased by eight per
cent and, in the opinion of motorists’
organizations, this gives more sup-
port to the opinion that a reduction
in gasoline tax would inevitably lead
to higher consumption of gasoline
and increased revenue to provincial
treasuries.

Advance returns of Customs and
Excise authorities in England show
590,000,000 gallons of beer sold last
year—forty million gallons more
than in the previous year when the
“penny a pint’ tax was in force.

if I have made this very clear, I hope
you understand.

The Education Board also select
the people who enter the training
colleges for two years’ training for
the teaching profession. The Ed.
Board give teachers their appoint-
ments. The Minister and the Ed.
Board plan the books ‘to be used and
the courses to be studied.

At least an hour every week of
school time is devoted to aports, and
everybody in the school is given a
chance. Imter-school matches are
held and sport is encouraged. The
school hours (most of them anyway)
are: five days a week, work from
9 a.m. to 12 am. and from 1 p.m.
to 3.30 p.m.

The objective of our school is to
prepare every pupil to be a law a-

Harrison, the venerable actor who
played the part of ‘‘De Lawd” in the
play “The Green Pastures,” was con-
ducted by the Episcopal Bishop of
New York in the great Cathedral of
St. Johm the Divine, as a tribute to
the spiritual force that he had exer-
cised in the last five years of his life.

Cynics may sneer and agnostics
scoff at the childlike absurdity, as
it seems to them, of the simple faith
of ‘the Negro as portrayed in that
play. But faith is not the product of
reason or of logic, it springs not from
the intellect, but from the emotions.
And few who have ever seen “The
GtreenPastures’” have failed to ibe
profoundly stirred.

I thought the Bishop’s text might
well have been taken from tthe 17th
verse of the 18th chapter of the Gos-
pei of St. Luke: “Whosoever shall
not receive the kingdom of God: as
a little child shal in no wise enter
therein.”

MILLIONS ... . two. girls

The matrimonial affairs of Ameri-
ca’s two “richest young women are
always first-page news. Everybody
is interested in good-looking young
‘women and everybody is interested
in millions. The two in combination
are irresistible.

Barbara Hutton, the five-and-ten
cent store heiress, has announced
that she is going to divorce herself
and her 42 million dollars from her
Georgian prince, who hadn’t any-
thing but a title and good looks to
trade for $50,000 a year she has set-
tled on him for life. I think both are
getting a good bargain.

Doris Duke, with her 33 millions
of tobacco money had the good sense
to pick an American husband who
has brains and ability in his own
right, who didn’t have to marry for
money, having plenty of it, and who
is enough older than his bride to
contribute the necessary worldly
wisdom to make their marriage ‘a
success. Knowing Jim Cromwell, I
think both of them got a bargain.
too.

MAVERICK .. sans party

Old Sam Maverick, who signed the
Texas Declaration of Independence
in 1846, has the rare distinction of
having had his mame become a com-
mon noun. A “maverick,” as every
western cow-man knows, iS an un-
branded steer. Sam Maverick own-
ed so many ‘head of cattle, and had
so much trouble during the war be-
tween the states in hiring enough
cowboys ito brand them all, that
thousands of them ran wild, as did
those of many others. When the un-
branded cattle were rounded up at
the end of the war Sam Maverick
was foremost in his claim of own-
ership, until it became a common-
place saying in Texas that any un-
branded steer must be one of Mav-
erick's.

The word came into many other
uses, until signifies today any per-
son who plays a lone hand and does
not run with the herd.

gressman Maury Maverick of Texas,

SUGAR. .. . . . maple sap

Up in Vermont they are tapping
the sugar maple, five million of them.
The mid-March thaw following a
hard winter has started the sap flow-
ing all along the northeastern bor-
der. Northern New York has begun
to harvest its annual crop of maple
sugar and syrup, though Vermont
still produces more than any other
state. :

Around my own farm in the Berk-
shires some of the neighbors witu
families still extract the maple sap,
“pile” it down into syrup and then,
usually, into maple sugar. The old
“sugar ibush” of somewhere above
100 sugar maple, two hundred years
old and more, at tthe top of the hill
above my house, hasn’t been tapped
Hired help
costs too much to make sugaring
profitable, and my family doesn’t run
to boys.

I have to get my satisfaction out
of the sugar season by recalling my
own ‘boyhood, and the fun we
youngsters used to have riding on
the ox-sleds that carted the sap-bar-
rels down to ithe big iron boiler. I
probably wouldn’t enjoy it much now
but half the happiness of advancing
years lies in remembering moments
of youthful ecstasy. .

SHORTAGE .° . draft animals

While the AAA has been cutting
down the number of hogs and beef
cattle it has been taking a census of
horses and mules and finds that a
serious shortage exists on American
farms. According to the experts in
Washington, the country needs ten
million more draft animals than it
has—whether for the purpose of
plowing under every third row of
something or other they do not say.

Washington is discussing various
schemes to bring up the number of
horses and mules to the 21 million
that were in use at the end of the
war. To me this looks like another
of those things in which the law of
supply and demand will work out if
the Government keeps its hands off.
With one branch of the Government
trying to stimulate the manufacture
and sale of motor-cars and tractors
and another trying to provide more
horses, it looks to me as if there
were an absence of coordination
somewhere.

VEGETABLE PLANTING

Leaf lettuce, radish, spinach and
the first of the garden peas will be
among ‘the earliest vegetables sown.
These may be planted just as soon as
the ground is fit to work. The lat-
ter time does not necessarily mean
as soon as the snow is gone but on-
ly when the soil crumbles rather
than packs when in the hand. It
is dangerous to work soil too soon,
it is stated. Particularly is this true
of heavy soils which may bake and
become like concrete if worked when

seeds should be sown at least three
times at intervals of ten days so thal
there will be a succession of vegeta-
bles. The second group to go in will
be carrots, beets, onions, potatoes,

LARGE HIGHWAY OUTLAYS
LOOKED FOR THIS YEAR

This year, splendid prospects are
provided for a large expenditure on
highways by the dominion and pro-
vincial governments.

The programs, still to be deter-
mined by the action of these legisla-
tive bodies when dealing with the
estimates for the fiscal year, should
involve large cutlays, particularly on
Trans-Canada Highway links in Al-
berta.

Year in and year out, the Alberta
Motor Association has been urging
the respective governments to im-
prove the highway system. Stress
has been laid on the value of the
tourist traffic, something that will
pour millions of dollars into this
province if it is developed to the
maximum degree.

As the Motor Association has
made clear to the governments, good
roadS mean more tourists _ benefit
business which helps everybody.

Last year, an arrangement was
made between the province and do-
minion under which $300,000 was
made available for work on_ the

Trans-Canada highway running by
way of Medicine Hat, Calgary and
Banff. A sum of $125,000 also was
loaned by the dominion to the pro-
vince and “ear-marked’’ for comple-
tion of the highway between Edmon-
ton and Jasper national park.

The Motor Association has urged
upon the dominion and provincial
government the need of completing
as speedily as possible the Big Bend
highway between Revelstoke and
Golden, B.C., which will thus” give
Alberta a direct southern outlet by
way of Banff to the Pacific coast and
open a new route for tourists from
eastern Canada and the United
States.

In respect to the northern part of
the province, the A.MLA. has urged
the dominion and British Columbia
governments to proceed with comple-
tion of 42 miles of new construction
on the 100-mile gap between Jasper
and Blue River, B.C., which would
establish a new highway connection
between the prairie provinces
the Pacific coast.

Speedy action also has been urged
upon the dominion in completing
what is known as the Jasper-Banff
scenic highway, of which a large
part has already been completed.

Most old physicians are more OT
less proud of their long experience.
As I look {back over my triumphs
and failures of 42 years of practise,
I can not forget that I have learned
many valuable things, which I may
be pardoned for passing on to you.

I have never seen a cup of anild
coffee at breakfast time do any harm
in any condition of ill health what-
ever. It is a refreshing and a
wholesome stimulant which I am
ready to recommend in any case, es-
pecially for old or feeble patients.

This being. the season for “colds”
I might mention a favorite prescrip-
tion of mine: keep it in the house for
use even before the family doctor is
called. I refer to a mixture of tur-
pentine and eucalyptus in the pro-
portion of one to four; say one-half
ounce of turpentine and 2 ounces of
the oil. This makes one of the best
all-roun§4 home applications for
many conditions. Use it on baby’s
throat and chest if he is taking cold,
on grandma’s back if it is aching;
or on grandpa’s knees when they are
stiff. Sprinkle a little on a handker-

eucalyptus is deadly for cold or in-
fluenza germs, if used in time.

Naturally I have been, as you
might suppose, the enemy of all se-
cret nostrums. I have not been will-
ing to administer to my patients,
medicine the content of which I did
not know. I had plenty of good re-
medies without resorting to the in-
strument of the charlatan, gotten up
solely for profit.

I suppose “liniments” will long be
favorites of the shut-ins; what won-
derful combinations we can make
with spirits of camphor, turpentine,
ammonia, eucalyptus and a_ little
tincture of capsicum—red pepper.

There is not much science in those
things, but, O, how gratifying and
neighborly they feel when applied in
the good, old fashioned way.

Mirrors should never be cleaned
with soap suds. The best results
are obtained by rubbing them with
a paste of whiting and water. Then

GRASSHOPPERS & CUTWORMS

An edition of 5,000 map-posters in
regard to the grasshoper situation in
the province of Saskatchewan has
just been issued and distributed by
the Entomological Branch of the
Dominion Department wf Agricul-
ture as part of the co-operation with
the Province of Saskatchewan in the
grasshopper control campaign for
1935. The poster presents a map in
colors forecasting the distribution
of the probable grasshopper out-
break in three categories and also in-
dicates the areas likely to be involv-
ed in an outbreak of pale western
cutwonm. The map is supplemented
by text outlining the general grass-
hopper control practices to be fol-
lowed throughout the province. The
combined map and poster should be
of the utmost value in dealing with
the impending outbreak. The poster
will be distributed chiefly through
vhe office of the Field Crops Com-
missioner of the Department of Ag-
riculture, of Saskatchewan, and in
addition to being on view at all muni-
cipal offices and centres of agricul-
tural assembly will be displayed in
railway stations and _ post _ offices
throughout the infested part of the
province.

PLANNING THE HOME GARDEN

Where the area devoted to garden
is limited, careful attention must be
given to such points as distance be-
tween rows and between plants, so
that all epace may be used to ad-
vantage. Each plant must have room
to mature, yet gaps must be avoided.
A study of. rotation of crops and
time of maturity is of great value in
planning the small garden. Such
crops as radish and spinach may be
grown as inter-crops between the
rows of later maturing crops like
carrots or parsnips. Late sown crops
may be planted between the rows of
early maturing crops just before the
latter are ready to harvest. Two
or three crops of such plants as ra-
dish and lettuce may ‘be grown on
the same area. A_ succession of
quick growing crops by planting at
intervals is also desirable.

Under irrigation, the different
varieties of vegetables require dif-
ferent amounts of water and at dif-
ferent times. The rows should there-
fore be planted in a manner that
water may be applied to each row as
required. Furrow irrigation is pre-
ferable to sprinkling and distribu-
tion may be obtained by small per-
forations at proper spacings in a
ten or twenty feot length of water
pipe. The outer end should be block-
ed and the other end fitted with a
hose connection.

Where land is cheap or where the
garden may be laid out in any shape
desired ease of cultivation should be
considered. All the rows may be
placed the same distance apart, just

wide enough for a horse cultivator,
whether the vegetable requires little
room or a great deal of room to ma-
ture. The rows should be as long
as possible for horse cultivation and
several kinds of vegetables may be
planted in the same row. Less time
is wasted in turning, and also less
ground in turning ends which are of-
ten weedy. A few minutes wiith a
bhoorse cultivator will keep a farm
garden reasonabl free from weeds
during the rush season in the spring
when there is not time for hand hoe-
ing. Horse cultivation reduced the
amount of hand labor to a minimum
and brings down the cost of produc-
tion. At the same time it often
means the difference between suc-
cess and failure with the farm gar-
den. For this reason, the garden
| Should be located close to both house
and barn. Being readily accessible
from the barn may mean time would
be taken to cultivate the garden
when it would not if a special trip
were necessary for the work.

A NEW HEN

Canada has contributed materially
to the making of what is claimed a
new hen which has been evolved by
agricultural scientists at Cambridge
University, England. The bird at
the moment tis the object of consid-
erable attention in the Old Country,
and concerning it the “Spectator”
says: ‘Few successes of greater in-
terest and practical possibilities have
been won in the field of agricultural
biology than the making of the new
Cambridge hen. ' Her chicks declare
their sex at birth, because the males
and females are differently marked.
This is a great advantage to the
poultry industry, since chicks travel
safely and well only during the first
two days of their life. The new
breed, known as Cambar, was de-
veloped by Dr. R. C. Punnet and his
associates at Cambridge, England,
| by the application of Medelian prin-
ciples. By the use of the Canadian
Barred Plymouth Rock (supplied by
the University of British Columbia
to Cambridge University) both sil-:
|ver and golden Cambars have been
,evolved. They are prolific layers of
‘large colored eggs, whilst still pos-
|sessing the virtue of sex-linked
chicks. These chicks mark an epoch
in the scientific breeding of poul-
try.”

Vinegar «<ructs can be easily and
thoroughly cleaned with diluted am-
monia. Never wash gold decorated
glassware with strong soap. If the
soap is too strong it will eat off the
gold.

Home canneries for fruits and
vegetables on the farm and in rural

centres are a recent development of |

great importance and _ possibilities.
The movement is spreading in On-
tario where 100,000 cases were pro-

duced in 1934.

FRANKNESS

There is no argument in favor of
war, but some good has come out of
war. During the Great War there
was more evidence of willingness to
give disinterested service than at
any other time, service which is per-
haps the outstanding need of
country today-

Before the war, there was a great
deal of hypocrisy which was destroy-

our

ed by the stern realities of a life
and death struggle. It was not un-
til the vital importance of man

(power came to be understood that
the public became informed as to
one group of diseases which, for
generations, had been sapping the
life blood of the nation.

The history of the world might be
written around the diseases which
have afflicted mankind. Early in
the old testament, we read that one
of the venereal diseases had made
its appearance. Since that time, his-
tory records many references to the
efforts made to control syphillis and
gonorrhoea.

As we have said, the history of

mankind anl the history of disease ,

go hand in hand. Small pox was un-
known in North America until it was
introduced by the early settlers. It

the North American Indians perish- |
ed from this disease
the white men.

Such being the case, it seems but
justice, if it be true, as most ob-
servers believe, that syphillis was
brought back to Europe by the earli-
est discoverers. True it is that it
did then appear in a most severe and
destrucive form as if it were a new
disease attacking for the first time.

What the Great War accomplish-
ed in this direction was to allow us
to view the venereal diseases,
which are major enemies, and, in-
stead of adopting an ostrichlike at-
titude, see them for what they are.
We cannot get anywhere in fighting
diseases unless we know the strength
and weakness of our enemies.

The strength of venereal disease |
has been that the public were left
uninformed as if here were some-
thing to be ashamed of, something
not to be mentioned in polite society.
Its weakness is that proper treat-
ment is effective. The earlier pro-
per treatment gets under way, the
sooner will results be obtained. Some

“The Holy Bible”

JUDAS MACCABAEUS

Judas Maccaibaeus’ record falls be-
tween the Old and the New Testa-
ments and is told in detail in the
books which form-
erly were printed
in the Bible in
slightly smaller
type and called the
Apocrypha.

Alexander the
Great was kind e-
nough to conquer
the world at one of
the easiest of al)
dates to remember, 333 B.C. When
he was asked, “To whom do you
leave your kingdom?" he answered,
“To the strongest.” In the division
which followed, Palestine was un-
der the domination of Ptolemy, whe

ruled Egypt. He caused the Old
Testament to be’ translated into
Greek. The ancient Hebrew was no

longer a spoken language and mos!
of the Jews who could read at all
read Greek. In the subsequent re-
distributions of authority,
passed under the domination
Greco-Syrian dynasty. Antiochus
Epiphanes endeavored to unify his
little empire by instituting a kind of
emperor-worship, or worship of the
state.

of a

Many :thousands of Jews accepted
this bastard form of idolatry, includ-
ing most of the priests. But there
was one aged priest, Mattathias, whe
revolted and withdrew from Jerusa-
lem, taking with him his five sons,

' Jochanan, Simon, Judas, Eleazer and

Jonathan. Even that retired country
village was not secure from the in-|
vasion of the new paganism. To his
horror, the old priest saw one of his!
summer neighbors come to render
the detested worship, a priest of God
leading him in the new idolatry. Full
of wrath, the old man killed both the
idolator and the priest, and he and
his sons fled to the mountains. There
they rallied a band of revolutionists.

They gathered strength until they
were able to meet the armies of
Antiochus in open battle, at first

only with the determination to die
fighting for God and their country.

Never was a truly noble cause
more valiantly defended. In 166 B.
C., Mattathias died, but not until he
had seen the struggle on the high
road to success. He coungeled his
sons to make Simon their political
leader and Judas their captain, and
they did so.

What followed is brilliant indeed.
In 164 BC., Judas actually defeated
the imperial armics a=! captured
Jerusalem. Tue tenple was cleans-
ed and rededicated, and tie worship
of God re-established. For more than
thirty years the brothers fought
their good fight, establishing again
1 Jewish dynasty in Jerusalem and
making it possible for Jesus to come
to a people who still worshipped the
God of Abraham. Judas was killed
in battle in 161 B.C.

He drew the six-shooters from his

His eye raked the canyon below
for a glimpse of Fallon. Suddenly
a bullet went “spang” over the. ram-

The shell dealer, whose eyes had

the crowd. No one else saw the
lightning gesture with which the out-
law jerked his guns. There was @
glint in both his hands a split frac-
tion of a second before tthe forty-
fives flashed and roared and spoke a-

shifted when ‘they were wrecked in

fourth went sideways at another
mark on the near edge of the gam-

drawn at the same time as Fallon,
dropped his gun from a nerveless
hand, his wrist streaming blood.

Speed backed away, eyes raking

the trail from here to there is in
shape. The trail is barred for four
days work. If anyone doubts about
my havin’ guts to make that good,
they can signify their views here and
now by sayin’ liar and coyote.”

It was ithe third evening after the
barring of ‘the trail. Maitland found
his partner talking alone with Brent
near a roughly bridged crossing at
the upper edge of the road work,
which a landslide that day had inter-
rupted.

During 'three days, new steamers
had been pouring into Skagway a

of adventurers—“Sweepings”
of the Coast towns as well as bona
fice prospectors who knew nothing
of the cause of the dispute and cared
less. Fallon had been packing them
in at Liarsville 'to vote the trail open;
had chosen a posse of gunmen in aa-
vance from among the wildest. Be-
fore this gathering threat, most of
the trail workers had given way.

“They’s a short string of us will
go the limit, if you want to,”’ Brent
was saying.

Speed shook his head. “It would-
n't be no kind of a break for the boys
who made this trail to get hung for
it. Tell them—to pick up their tools
and leave her open and stand clear.”

“I've got an old deer gun back to;
camp,” Brent shifted the quid slow-,
ly in his cheek. ‘She ain’t seed no
real action sence she fit a string of

hide thieves from a_ buffolo waller
away back in ‘71. I'd ruther shoot
her out than see you called that
way.”

There was acknowledgement in
Speed’s smile, but he declined the
proposal, and the old-timer gloomily;

withdrew to carry his decision to the
few men who were still waiting for
it.

“Better trail with him, Bud,”’ Speed
said to his partner, “and look up
Garnet. We ain't seen him for two
days.”

“What are you going to do?” Mait-
land asked, with a foreboding that
Speed had not disclosed his real in-
tention.

“We agreed once,” said the
law, after a pause, “that I'd warn
you and we'd split pardners if I ever
went up against Law. Seems like

“It's on'y my hand Fallon’s callin'”
Speed explained earnestly and with
more emphasis. ‘He'll head through
here, first with his shebang,and eith-
er he don't cross this bridge, or I
don’t live to see it. But he has the
bickin’ of the miners’ law, or will

Suddenly a bullet went “gpang” over the rampart

goods lay stacked; provisions, a wa-
ter canteen, several boxes of shells
and a forty-four Winchester carbine.
The outlaw had evidently foreseen
what was coming.

During supper he was broodingly
quiet. A blood-red moon was rising
through 'the timber. It lighted the
mountain headlands, and left vasty
shadows, made more tenebrous' by
the occasional howl of a timber wolf,
a lynx’s shrill bark, or the hoot of an
owl. He picked up the carbine, his
eyes on something invisible to Mait-
land, far up the trail. But présent-
ly he set the gun down. “That's
Pete’s mare,” he said.

A blurred shape moved in the dis-
tant ‘timber shadows. When it cross-
a lane of moonlight, Maitland recog-
nized the mare and the boy. Guided
by a sight as keen as Speed’s Pete
came toward them as they descend-
ed the bluff. There was something
gallant and fine Maitland thought,
about that slight, boyish figure.

On meeting them, Pete gave him
a reserved nod; glanced from _ tthe
bluff to the hills across the canyon,
and spoke to Speed. ‘‘Need an exter
gun hand?”

“I got one too many now,”
muttered.

“Then, will you let me go through?
I could ford tthe creek,’’ Pete plead-
ed simply. “That wouldn't be cros-
sin’ it on legs.”

Speed's eyes rested on the mare’s
light saddle pack, and then on the
boy’s face, which looked pale in the
half-darkness. ‘‘Headin’ for Bennett
alone?” he asked.

Pete nodded. ‘My partner—Bill’s
ad.”

The words gave Maitland a peculi-
ar shock. “How?” Speed asked soft-
ly.

“He was in a game—in Skagway—

with some of Fallon’s men. Lost his
sutfit. He'd been drinkin’. They
found him on the beach,—afterwards

drowned.”
Speed did not speak for a moment.

Then he said,. ‘How do you aim to
make out, kid?”

“There's a man in the Yukon Bill

hesitantly. “I’m goin’ up to find him

At this point there was a waver-

“Pete!” Maitland exclaimed.

But their attention was now sum-

caught a glimpse of Fallon with his
